I think my period is due to start in the next few days, so I decided to do the weight update a day early, so there was less of a chance that it would impact the numbers:
weight: 215.6 lbs
fat percentage: 48.2%
hydration: 35.6%
muscle: 25.5%
bone: 10.9%
cal: 2353
My weight has come back down a bit, which is encouraging (especially since it may already be influenced by my period). But I'm not happy to see the fat percentage back up to over 48%, so I'll have to look into that a little more (a quick search says body fat percentage, along with weight, fluctuates over the course of a day, so it's possible that I'm just seeing these random normal fluctuations over time).
Another thing I still have to do is start tracking what I'm eating a little better. Though I do think I was a little more mindful this past week, so that was good. I also really need to start meal planning a bit better, particularly in terms of snacks. I haven't baked healthy muffins in a few weeks, and without having them on hand it's been harder to come up with satisfying afternoon snacks for the work day.
I'm also really excited - I bought a few new cookbooks this week from Amazon! One of them is a book with great meal prep ideas, which is perfect for taking on days that I work later. I'm excited for it to arrive. :)
With my period expected soon, I will not be doing another weight update until after it's over. But I will try to take some time over the next week to actually research fat percentage and muscle percentage!
